The ACME Fender Rocketbass X-TNT Blast 3000

The character is strongly inspired by singer Alex Kapranos' style in Franz Ferdinand's music video 'Walk Away'. Of course, I immediately signed a multi billion dollar contract with leading-edge ACME Corporation.

«Yesterday he invented Disneyland, and the likes of us. Today he's the genie of the New York World's Fair. Can you guess what he's dreaming of next?»

Drawing process thingies

Following up the last posting. By the by, this very painting by Carl Spitzweg always automatically pops up in my mind when drawing characters associated with delivery and all sorts of postal services. It's a universal reference to me:
